Description

Incertae sedis: Epimeria (Drakepimeria) subgen. nov. sp. 2

Epimeria sp. – Andres 1985: 127, fig. 10, 11A.

Distribution

South Shetland Islands: Clarence Island, 0– 145 m.

Remark

The description of Epimeria sp. by Andres (1985) is based on two tiny (7 mm) male specimens. It exhibits similarities with E. leukhoplites sp. nov., E. reoproi and E. vaderi, of which the description is based on much larger specimens. It is likely that Andres’ (1985) specimens are juveniles of one of these species.
